Sri Lanka has called up Ashen Bandara and Kasun Rajitha as the replacement for Dushmantha Chameera and Danushka Gunathilaka in the T20 World Cup squad.
Chameera suffered a grade two tear in the calf of his left foot during the qualifier match against UAE while Gunathilaka was ruled out due to a hamstring tear.
Rajitha, who last played a T20I in October 2019, is in Sri Lanka and will travel to Australia as soon as possible.
Sri Lanka will be without a few players as they head into the match against the Netherlands, however, the side will be optimistic to ensure a place in the group stage of the grand event.
As the Netherlands have won both their matches and a win against Sri Lanka will seal the deal for the ticket to Super-12.
